BACKGROUND: The Deoartment of Conferences, Conventions and Public Facilities has reviewed the current rates and comparative research regarding rates at the Miami Convention Center and comparable facilities, and recommends new rates, rents, fees and charges for the Auditorium and other areas within the Miami Convention Center. In accordanc- with the covenant of the Trust Indenture securing the Convention Center/Garage Revenue Bonds, Leisure Management Miami, Inc., contracted managers acting as consultants for the Miami Convention Center, submitted to the City of Miami a suggested schedule of new rents, rates, fees, and charges for the Auditorium and other areas. The comparative study and rate recommendations are attached. Based on a review of the current rates, and comparative research compiled by Leisure Management Miami, Inc., it has been etermined that these newly proposed rates will maintain our attractiveness in the marketplace and assure the City of Miami of a more competitive posture with the other similar meeting facilities in the Greater Miami area.

MAMI CONVENTION CENTER RATE RECOMMENDATIONS FEBRUARY 15, 1994 The following are our recommendations on rates for the Miami Convention Center: 1) The existing rates for conventions and concerts should remain the same. 2) Hyatt Catering Rate: For catering functions booked within 60 days, charge $2.50 per person on lunches and dinners only. Hyatt will also be responsible for the setup, maintenance, breakdown, cleanup and porter services for the r -nts. A minimum of 200 people per event. Ur further suggest a parking discount be given to increase the business in this area. 3) Offer a pre -concert or post -concert rate for the use of River&ont Hall. The following rates would only be available to the same group that has booked a concert in JLK and only within 90 r. s of the event: (a) South Hall - $ 6-10.00 (b) Central Hall- $1,000.00 (c) North Hall- $ 900.00 *This rate would not be available for conventions. 3 11160 4) Offer non-profit rates as follows: (a) JL,K- 51,850.00 (half house rate for full house rental) (b) Riverfront Hall- 15% discount 5) For public dances, parties or other functions with no food service provided, that are not connected with any other activity or convention in the facility the rent is: Area North Hall Central Hall South Hall Total Area Charge for day or part of $3, 500 $4, 500 2 500 $10,500 We feel that the implementation of these recommendations will help produce more revenue for the Center by converting dark days into revenue producing event days. These strategies are intended to attract short-term business that may otherwise be going to competing facilities without jeopardizing our ability to book conventions on a long-term basis Attached, please find a survey of competing facilities. If you have any questions regarding these recommendations, please let us know. NOTE: This memo complements the City's recommendations to the commission for rate changes. cc: Terry Buice John Blaisdell Carl Martin Deborah Jurgensmeyer OB—mar —y4 MIAMI CONVENTION CENTER JAMES L.
